Answer:
E ) The horizontal component of a projectile acceleration is zero.
Explanation:
In case of a projectile , force of gravity acts in vertically downward direction so acceleration will act in vertically downward direction . Its direction never changes during course of its journey. So horizontal component of acceleration will always be zero at all points of its journey.
Answer:
121 Joules
6.16717 m
Explanation:
m = Mass of the rocket = 2 kg
k = Spring constant = 800 N/m
x = Compression of spring = 0.55 m
Here, the kinetic energy of the spring and rocket will balance each other

The initial velocity of the rocket is 11 m/s = u.
v = Final velocity
s = Displacement
a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s² = g

The maximum height of the rocket will be 6.16717 m
Potential energy is given by

The potential energy of the rocket at the maximum height will be 121 Joules
Answer:
8.85m/s
Explanation:
The potential energy the watermelon held before dropping is Ep=mgh=2*9.8*4=78.4J.
When it strikes the ground, all of its Ep will transfer into Ek, so 1/2*m*v^2=78.4.
We already knew that m=2, so insert that in, we will get the V^2=78.4 m/s, V=8.85 m/s
Hi,
<u>The man on the ground in standing position has more pressure</u>. This is because when he stands, only his legs are in contact with the ground. While lying, his body is more in contact with the ground, therefore, he exerts less pressure.
To the point, a man standing position on the ground had more pressure.
More is the area of contact, less is the pressure efforted.
Thank you...
